1. For K

    I always meant to tell you something.

    I think of you sometimes when I can’t sleep

    (Please don’t think I’m creepy)

    About how you did the American Accent Quiz on me

    And you asked Zebra or Zeebra

    Pop Quiz or Test

    And I kept laughing

    And I wish we’d had more time

    I wish we all had had more time

    Time, time

    And then my eyes stare at the dark dark ceiling and I think

    I’ll say Zebra for the rest of my life

    Not Zebra

     


  2. Dear Monkey Family,

    I can’t wait to start the chain letters.

    Words, across the world. Passing from one hand to another, dreaming, reaching.

    Really, I can’t wait. I am so excited, it is taking some self-control to not just write in caps.
